Selegiline side effects
Hi All. Due to drug shortages we've been unable to get rasagiline and had to swap to selegiline. Since the swap mum has had lots of unusual bleeding and the GP thinks it may be a side effect of the selegiline. Just wondered if anyone else has had similar problems and if so how did you resolve things?

Busy day today - O + show + interviews
Full day but all good. - Ocrevus infusion went well as expected. This time around, they gave me the steroids 5-10 min before Benadryl and I did not feel any effect from the Benadryl. - then tonight my husband took me to see a Jerry Seinfeld show. So much laughing. He's so good. This was great. I

Pain and stiffness in hand after covid booster
I was diagnosed back in 2020. Took a few months but the methotrexate kicked in and I greatly improved. Yet now I am getting pain and stiffness in one hand. I had the covid booster the other week and it made me feel rotten for days after. I do wonder if there is a link. Has anyone else experienced this

Covid and PSP
My husband who has PSP has Covid now (for the first time). He is in our community hospital for IV fluids and antibiotics. They said Covid medication is arriving today.

IBS/Covid/Stress - Help!
Hi, I've just come across this forum and I'm hoping that you kind folks can give me a virtual hug and some kind words. To sum it up as briefly as possible, I am 48 and have had IBS for 28 years.

Wanted to thank all of you who replied to my earlier post about the covid spring booster,much appreciated and after a lot of thought about pros and cons , I paid for the phizer vaccine (obviously I would rather have not) so fingers crossed. I have had some technical difficulty in replying before.still

Yes, You CAN have the Shingles Vaccine
Hi Everyone, I'm writing this just in case there is anyone out there who thinks they can't have the shingles vaccine because they are on pred. I believed this and refused the vaccine. I later found It was only true if you were on over 20mgs of pred (which I am not). Last October, a new vaccine

Recovering after hospital stay
I’m wondering if anyone can tell me what to expect next. I had Covid at the end of January. I felt very flu like for a couple of days then okay for a few days. After that I got a cold and a chesty cough. The cough was only occasional. At the end of last week I started to feel flu like again. I decided

Update on Covid/AF
Hi all, Last week I reported that despite my daily dose of medication (60mg x 2 Diltiazem) I was consistently going in and out of AF due to COVID. I increased my Diltiazem by 60mg as (PIP) to try and eliminate/reduce the episodes. However, I found despite helping, this was exacerbating my AF - episodes

COVID vaccine May 2024
I had my latest covid vaccine on Saturday and it’s now Monday and my side effects as usual are horrible. Vomiting, thumping headache, stomach pain. The lymph node on the side of my neck is swollen much more than normal. I wondered is it just me?

6 month old chronic cough
My 6 month old baby has had a cough on and off for the last 4 months . Back to the gp various times and three courses of antibiotics yet this still has not fully gone! Been referred to pediatrics and gp said this may be the start of asthma but hard to diagnose due to his age. I’m really getting anxious

Is it safe to renew my tetanus injection with being on 8mg Pred?
My tetanus injection needs to be topped up. I have an allotment in London which used to be part of a railway embankment and wondered if it is wise to take the injection or to wait till I have tapered down to under 5 mg? The same goes for the Hepatitis which is due? Any advice would be appreciated
